Every believer is indwelt by the Spirit of God. So how could a believer ever think of taking a body in which the Holy Spirit dwells and using it for vile purposes? Not only is the believer's body the shrine of the Holy Spirit, but in addition, the believer belongs to God. It is not for believers to take their bodies and use them the way they desire.
What is the famous verse about love in 1 Corinthians 13:4-8? What metaphor does Paul use to describe the church in 1 Corinthians 12? In 2 Corinthians 5:17, what does Paul say happens to those who are in Christ? What is the "thorn in the flesh" that Paul talks about in 2 Corinthians 12:7?
According to the Bible Jesus as a whole was taken up to heaven; both, I suppose. Jesus ascended with his Spiritual Body."But some man will say, How are the dead raised up and with what body do they come? Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened except it die; and that which thou sowest thou sowest not that body that shall be" (I Corinthians xv, 35-37). "It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body" (44) "Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God" (50). Jesus' physical body must be buried somewhere.
Paul said "What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you boast as though you did not?" in his first letter to the Corinthians (1 Corinthians 4:7). This statement emphasizes the idea that everything we have is ultimately a gift from God, and we should therefore not boast as if it were of our own doing.
The consensus of Scholars contributing to the NKJV say it was written in the Spring of A.D. 56. They base this upon Paul being in Ephesus at the time (verse 16:8) coupled with Acts 20:31. The Church at Corinth was about 4 years old at the time of this letter.
A:Between five and seven epistles were actually written by Paul. Raymond E Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) says that the majority of scholars say that 1 Thessalonians, Galatians, 1 Corinthians, 2 Corinthians, Philippians, Philemon and Romans were written by him. A.Q. Morton goes further, having carried out a computer analysis of the epistles attributed to Paul and found that only Romans, 1 Corinthians, 2 Corinthians and Philemon contain exactly the same writing style as Galatians, leaving some room for doubt regarding 1 Thessalonians and Philippians. No doubt this period was the height of Paul's missionary career. Also traditionally attributed to Paul are 2 Thessalonians, Ephesians, Colossians, 1and 2 Timothy, and Titus, which are sometimes referred to as pseudo-Pauline epistles and are believed to have been entirely unknown to St Paul.
A stewardship is when one is given a responsibility. I have a stewardship to care for my wife and children, even though they are all married and have families of their own. I have a stewardship as patriarch over their families. To say that one has a stewardship gives the responsibility more importance if you like. It is one that you must not fail to carry out.
We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. 2 Corinthians 5:8
Corinthians 13:12

1 Corinthians 11.
Love. See I Corinthians 13:8.
temptation; 1 corinthians 10:13
1 Corinthians 12 says Christians are members of the Body of Christ, and it breaks it down with the imagery of actual body parts:If the foot should say, "Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body," is it therefore not of the body? And if the ear should say, "Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body," is it therefore not of the body? If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole werehearing, where would be the smelling? But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body just as He pleased. And if they were all one member, where would the body be? vv. 15-19
